The Peppermint Place currently located in American Fork closed it doors on January 6, 2017. Many will remember the Kencraft candy tour formerly located in Alpine. Adults and children alike enjoyed a candy wonderland factory tour which finished with a delicious treat. Visitors could watch frosting artist hand craft candy characters on many of the specialty sweets. In 2013 The Peppermint Place was moved to American Fork near the 500 East Exit. Some assembly and artistry was displayed there as well. 

The closing of this beloved store and community icon will be dearly missed. Kencraft will still provide quality treats online.
